small favour to ask of people (anyone): search "lichee_A64_A5.1_V1.0.tar.gz", this should come up with a link on baidu. endeavour to download this file, then check whether it's corrupted or not.

i have received a copy of the SDK (via a different route) - the problem is that it took a *month* of retries to extract it out of china, and every single copy has file corruption. the last corrupted version was only corrupted right at the end, meaning that i have alllmost everything needed...
